Marilyn Borchardt

Marilyn Borchardt grew up in Wisconsin farm country. After receiving her B.S. from the University of Wisconsin (via Berea College in KY), and a M.S. from Oregon State University, she worked for 14 years in child welfare in Colorado and California. Since 1986, she has been the Development Director at Food First. This long tenure has allowed her to enjoy the thousands of letters from adoring "Food First fans," making what some say is a difficult job, instead a most rewarding experience. In addition to her responsibilities to individual donors, Marilyn has the pleasant task of working with interns and volunteers from around the world who provide valuable service to further the Institute's research and education agenda.
